This symposium offers undergraduate and graduate students as well as faculty and administrative and classified staff the opportunity to present findings on critical issues related to diversity in the broadest sense within their respective fields. We particularly welcome posters (as well as other types of displays) based on research, scholarly or creative projects covering any topic related to diversity. For student presentations, we are looking for submissions based on projects conducted by individual students with a faculty mentor as well as for course-based projects. Both group and individual presentations will be accepted.

View past students' presentations related to topics in diversity.

The top presenters will receive an original glasswork designed by BGSU faculty member and glass blowing artist, Dr. Joel O'Dorisio, at a later award ceremony. All presentations are encouraged to be also presented at BGSU's annual Undergraduate Symposium for Research and Scholarship.
